func_bobbing water... help

(mcm151201) #1

when I make my water bobbing, it all of a sudden becomes a solid brush in the game, when before it was just normal water… how can I make it so normal water bobbs up and down?

Best way to have water acting like waves is to use a shader entry to the water texture u wanna use.

textures/yourfolder/yourtexname
{
	qer_editorimage textures/yourfolder/yourtexname.tga
	q3map_globaltexture
	deformVertexes wave 160 sin 0 10 0 .3
	cull twosided
	nofog
	surfaceparm nomarks
	surfaceparm nonsolid
	surfaceparm pointlight
	surfaceparm water
	tesssize 384
	waterfogvars ( 0.1 0.1 0.1 ) 128
	{
		map textures/yourfolder/yourtexname.tga
		rgbgen identity
		tcmod scale .4 .2
		tcmod scroll .0 .08
		fog on
	}
}

Using the above shader entry and your own watertexture u will have the same sort of flowing water like the beach map for RTCW. Moving the texture sideways like it was flowing and making waves on the surface.

But if you need water going up and down like a tide or so i suggest u use a script_mover for that.
